Taro.getLocation(option)

Gets current geographic location and speed. The API cannot be called when the user exits the Mini Program.

Note

  • Location simulation in the tool uses IP-based location, and there may have some error. The tool only supports GCJ-02 coordinates now.
  • When using a third-party service for reverse address resolution, please check the default coordinate system of the third-party service and perform coordinate conversion correctly.
